"His four overs are most crucial in T20s"- Shaun Pollock lauds 'game changer' Rashid Khan

Khan will be seen in action during the UAE-leg of IPL 2021 in September.

Rashid Khan | BCCI/IPLAfghanistan's tweaker Rashid Khan is one of the most lethal leg-spinners as he has always proved his mettle with consistent performances during the Indian Premier League (IPL) as well as franchise-based T20 leagues across the globe, apart from performing for the national team.

Thus, not only fans but also legendary South Africa pacer Shaun Pollock in his latest interaction opined that the Afghan spinner has the ability to change games during his 4 overs in a T20 match.

Rashid Khan is an absolute game-changer. He is so dangerous with the ball, and his four overs are the most crucial overs in any T20 match that he's part of. 

His skill and craft with the ball is just exceptional. He is also a decent contributor with the bat and can knock it about in the death overs at times. For me, he is the MVP in any match in any league that he is playing,” Pollock said.

Pollock had made a special appearance during the first Rario Pack Reveal Party, where the 48-year-old got nostalgic after seeing the digital cricket collectibles and revealed that he himself was an avid collector of sports cards during his childhood.

Growing up, we used to have collectible cards for all South African sporting legends, which we used to collect and stick inside a particular book that used to be there. There were about 100-odd names in this book,” the right-arm quick said

So we would get these cards, swap them in school and stick them on in their place in the book. There used to be ten 'all-time legends', which were rare cards and the hardest to get hold of. We had to swap about 15 cards just to get hold of one of those rare ones. I remember that time fondly. Since then, I have signed quite a few of these cards for fans,” he signed off.

Fans will be eager to see their favorite leggie, Rashid Khan, back in action during the second-leg of IPL 2021 slated to begin from September 19 in UAE.
